Dr. Berkenstock is a joy to have as a doctor. She is friendly, easy to talk to, and explains things clearly. I feel like the appointments in this office are efficient overall - both due to Dr. Berkenstock but also due to the nurses who do my eye exams before I get to Dr. Berkenstock's office. I've only had two appointments at this office (since I recently moved back to the area) and overall I'm so pleased with this office and very happy this is where my rheumatologist referred me for my regular eye exams!
